Why just blame Bush? Seems as if Congress, Repub and Dem have been
overspending and borrowing from China for years. Blame the Senators
also.
The 3 running for POTUS are all guilty of overspending.
Ah who cares.
Just print up some more money. :)
If we keep using corn to make biofuel, we are all going to have to print
our own money just to go to the supermarket.
Want to solve that problem quickly?
We went from having a 15 month supply of corn/wheat and soybeans to
barely keeping up with demand. It's getting to the point where ethanol
has sucked up all the supply of available feed and food grains and
we're at 3 months currently.
Solution: Quit using ethanol.
If the FED and SEC don't get control of the proliferation of hedge
funds and too much money chasing too little profit forcing the funds
into commodities, you will get severe economic dislocation.
Solution: Increase capital gains on hedge fund profits. For pete's
sake, George Soros made 3 billion dollars with his fund last year
which is more than the GDP of the 15 world's poorest economies
combined.
Solution #2: In lieu of capital gains on hedging in commodities, if
investment money is rerouted into housing and infrastructure, all is
forgiven.
However, nobody listens to me. :)
PS: I called this current food issue two years ago.
Nobody listened to me then either. :)
I nominate Tom Francis for President of the US....
heck..let's go all the way.. how about Prime Minister of Canada?
I accept.
Benevolent Dictatorship - you may call me Most High Holy and
Resplendent Emperor.
And my first action will be to change the size of the hockey puck to
the size of a dinner plate so you can actually see the damned thing on
TV. :)
Don't tell me you're one of those wacky Americans who encouraged FOX tv to
develop that glow/laser puck a while back.
